The Med Aire 8" Alternating Pressure and Low Air Loss mattress replacement system is indicated for the prevention and treatment of all stages of pressure ulcers. This feature rich Group 2 Support Surface offers alternating pressure therapy and microclimate control optimizing pressure redistribution and helping to maintain skin integrity. An intuitive 8 LPM (liters per minute) control unit provides 4 cycle time options, auto-recovery, seat inflation, micro processing feedback, 3 diagnostic alarms, and comfort settings easily adaptable to the patient's specific needs. Designed to administer alternating pressure and low air loss therapy, this mattress has head to toe durable air cells with pillow function for comfort, cell on cell technology for power outage protection, and a low shear, anti-friction, fluid resistant durable stretch cover.

Features and Benefits

This combination therapy system provides both alternating pressure and low air loss to optimize pressure redistribution and manage skin maceration

Designed to prevent, treat and manage pressure ulcers in the home, long term care, or acute care setting

Cell-on-cell design of 8" deep air cells prevents "bottoming out" and also provides up to 24 hours of power outage protection

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)

TENS is a non-invasive, drug free method of controlling pain, which uses tiny electrical impulses sent through the skin to nerves in order to modify your pain perception. In most people it is effective in reducing or eliminating the pain.

Electronic Muscle Stimulation (EMS)

EMS works by sending electronic pulses to the muscle(s). This is achieved by sending low frequency electric pulses through muscle tissue causing them to gently contract. In this way the muscles are passively exercised and blood flow is increased

Galvanic Stimulators

Galvanic Stimulators use direct current, which creates an electrical field over the treated area. The positive pad works like ice, causing reduced circulation to the area under the pad. The negative pad works like heat, causing increased circulation.

Interferential

IF sends small comfortable electrical impulses through your skin to work on deeper tissue stimulation. The sensation works to prevent pain signals from reaching the brain.

Russian

Russian stimulation uses medium frequencies to provide stimulation to muscle groups. This is used to reduce muscle spasms as well as for muscle strengthening. This method was created to produce maximal muscle strengthening effects.

Micro Current

Microcurrent Therapy uses extremely small amounts of electrical current (millionths of an amp) to help relieve pain and heal soft tissues of the body. The electrical current used in Microcurrent Therapy is so small that it is rarely felt.
